GeoDelhi First event! Wednesday 2nd September 2015 at @akvo Delhi office (in green park ext.) meetup.com/GeoDEL/events/… if you love #maps do join us :)
.@Marathon_Hyd experience is still sinking in. If there’s 1 thing every running event should take from them it’s their volunteer enthusiasm.
@RaceDirectorAHM Without doubt!
@keeperofthekeys Thank you!
@nigelbabu You’ll breeze through.
So many #AHM2015 tees at HYD airport right now.
@PinguicVerse Yay!
@GoAthlos Thank you!

mehulved @anisha_narang @nigelbabu yo Delhi so pretentious that half the time she’s hot, other half she’s acting cool.
Too much of 78, a bit of 52. “@nigelbabu: 101 kicks in the butt to get you motivated to run! runnersworld.com/runners-storie…”
fatmansays I’m naturally buoyant. #pun #fatmansays
@beanbuffs @Grashima @_basestation Cool. I’ll be out of town for the next few days. Can someone order the coffee so that it arrives in time?
@rasagy This is awesome!
Hey India, please stop torching buses. You remind me of @varungrover’s theory on how dinosaurs became extinct, and I fear buses too will.
bhavyakhanna Ideally would love to donate to an organisation that teaches kids science in schools in Delhi. Anyone doing that?
shwetank Bangalore peeps: Would you be interested in a small Opera dev meetup with me and @mathias around the time of JSFoo?
@Grashima @beanbuffs So, Sep 5th afternoon at @_basestation? Lock kar diya jaye?
@aadish4 @bharatmohan Photo kheech ke chipka de.
PinguicVerse This is last week of #Fundraising for #CSJ’s “Lend a Hand” campaign for their #FightAgainstChildSexualAbuse. [Link csjindia.org/csj_s_3rd_birt…
@bharatmohan @aadish4 yes.
@bharatmohan @aadish4 @runadhm Epic! Too many friends this time.
@mehulved Anyways, I hope you’re coming over. It’s on the 29th Nov. Club it with @NH7 and the party is on.
@mehulved @runscmm Are you missing something? pic.twitter.com/tjIRX932g3
@PinguicVerse Okay I want to cry now. @nigelbabu
@keeperofthekeys Here’s another chance. Don’t miss. :p twitter.com/runadhm/status…
If we know each other on twitter, and you plan to participate in @runadhm please let me know. I want to add you to twitter.com/souvikdg/lists….
Here’s some perspective. In 2012 I had no friend at @runadhm. Last 2 years I had @bhavyakhanna. This time: twitter.com/souvikdg/lists… (+ more)
@bharatmohan @aadish4 Registering for @runadhm?
Delhi’s running community is growing at an insane rate. Won’t be surprised if next year @runadhm restricts registrations to timed runners.
@manasmohan w00t! @runadhm
@manasmohan To kar rahe ho register for @runadhm?
@s_shashank_s Yay!
@s_shashank_s ADHM registrations are open. twitter.com/runadhm/status…

awryaditi You happy, positive, achiever type people who run marathons and do things with their lives need to stop making the rest of us look bad.
@PinguicVerse Who’s the one? I must find him and congratulate him. A master troll, I must say.
@PinguicVerse I pity your future offsprings already.
@PinguicVerse Kiss baat ka? @nigelbabu
@nigelbabu In a world where people have knee problems and no stamina, don’t downplay a 5k marathon effort. *cough* *cough*
@PinguicVerse Advanced the date?
@nigelbabu This day onwards you’re my guru.
pranesh_prakash If any of you know a networking techie looking for an internship, please point her/him towards me? Thanks! Pls. RT.

varungrover Hindi has no daily-use word for ‘sexy’. ‘Kaamottejak’ sounds so unsexy.
@Abhishek_Rai No more sir.
@DilliBelle @atti_cus I half expected the soap to jizz out.

The State Govt. of Telangana is sponsoring @Marathon_Hyd. Wow!

@iotakodali Okay, no problem.
ajantriks Please invite @souvikdg to your next #openData party for the juiciest stories about jurisdiction troubles affecting #transportData.@datameet
“@xrivatsan: Anyone flying from Delhi to Bangalore tomorrow / day after? I need some important documents. (Urgent, Please RT)” @iotakodali
@kiccovich Just reached. @_basestation @kingslyj
fatmansays Hello twitter! Is it just me or do others also notice that the chicken logo turns into a blue bird right after a meal? #fatmansays
@kiccovich Cool, see you! @_basestation @kingslyj
@kiccovich @_basestation @kingslyj We’re late starters. I should be in office in 30mins. Does that work?
@kiccovich For today/tomorrow? Yes! Here’s the location →basestation.in/location @_basestation @kingslyj
@mehulved In my experience (of #DTC in Delhi), rarely do buses stop in front of a bus stop. It’s usually ahead or behind or the next lane.
ajantriks .@datameet #delhi: Join us to hear about @iotakodali’s adventures in collecting #transportData, tomorrow at 6 pm meetup.com/DataMeet-Delhi…
@PinguicVerse @nigelbabu The shoe fell short. Try harder next time. In the meanwhile listen to Prem Joshua.
@PinguicVerse @nigelbabu No it is not funny. It’s strategic. The draft won’t feel godawful anymore.
@PinguicVerse That wasn’t a reaction I was expecting. Sounds like you’ve never heard of him. @nigelbabu
@tetisheri Happened to me when I was there. These guys want to maximise number of bookings cause incentives are linked to that. @Uber_BLR
@PinguicVerse Listen to Anup Jalota. @nigelbabu
@mehulved Everyone’s saying it’s a tough one. Makes me nervous.
PinguicVerse Need guidance on purchase of conflict free precious/semi precious gems. Please help. RT. Thanks :-)

@keeperofthekeys Hope it went well.
@mehulved Happy Birthday Mehul! Manzil door nahi.
@satyaakam Aisa bhi kya gunah kiya hai.
We’ve so many forms of seat reservations in #DTC. Why not one for recovering runners?
@mehulved Tu beer hai! Keep going!
Gifted @Pinkathon10K registration to sister in advance for Rakhi.
Turning into a sadist, 1 step at a time.

Last time I ran a 400m loop —mobile.twitter.com/souvikdg/statu…I
Until about a month back never had I even remotely considered running on a 400m sports stadium track.
Done and dusted. Over 100 laps. #fml
Result of today’s maddening run: Not dead.
But these guys →@lokallobaat, @jimanish, @nigelbabu and @PinguicVerse and so so awesome!
@rasagy @instagram (and its parent) is a competitor. So not surprising. But I think linking to the source is more important than preview.
@rasagy I am a Tweetbot user. If others don’t show, they should.
Current status: Repeating to myself — “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger”.
@rasagy Truncated text is okay, that happens anyways. But “ift.tt” url — eww!@turmericdesignn
@turmericdesign @rasagy Will it also link to the Instagram post? If not that’s a big flip side cause many clients preview the photo anyways.
@PythonIreland Sounds interesting, tell us more. miranj.in

@ankurb Could’ve offered our space @_basestation but it’s anything but meeting room type.
ankurb Delhi people: I need access to #coworking space / meeting room type area for a few hours today for hosting a video conference. Any leads?
@vrinda_m Day after is worse, no?
Watched Kanan Gill perform today. The only remarkable joke was the ticket price.
Yes, that underwhelming.
@surdattack App only. :/ @Cleartrip
@zooeymui Ha!
Wow! “@twitortat: .@Decathlon has some magic happening at 1m 24s into this video. youtube.com/watch?v=GVGUSp…”

@PinguicVerse Also, thank god you weren’t near blasts on non-Independence Day. Being scared 364 days a year would’ve kinda sucked. No?
@PinguicVerse Funny, it’d have perhaps the exact opposite effect on me, because #BeenThereDoneThat.
@zooeymui Apple parts are shit expensive and Apple Care is like an insurance that everyone must get. I’ve had my MBP replaced under it once.

@kns008 Yes yes, sure sure.
@nigelbabu Apologies.
@zooeymui Aww. Didn’t get Apple Care?
@beanbuffs @Grashima Not possible this Sat, unsure about Sunday. Out of town Aug 29-30 weekend. Sep 5/6 works.
ajantriks MHA has initiated a logo contest for #CCTNS. Winner gets 1 lakh. mygov.in/task/design-lo… @guneetnarula @souvikdg @sunil_abraham
@aadish4 It will, worry not. @bhavyakhanna @runscmm @lokallobaat @bharatmohan
@aadish4 Super! So You, me and @bhavyakhanna doing the full at @runscmm. Another friend @lokallobaat doing half. Post run party will be fun!
@aadish4 Yay! For full I suppose? @bharatmohan
@aadish4 When I say systemic, I have specific points in mind. Will explain next time we meet. It’s not entirely co’s fault.
@aadish4 It’s way more complex than that. Not just maintenance but the quality of buses itself is inferior. Plus a systemic problem.
@aadish4 But in my tweet I was referring to the new (5-6 yr old) low floor #DTC buses. These buses are unbelievably shitty.
@aadish4 Few old buses that ply have recently (or about to) hit the 8-year limit in Delhi. #DTC sought extension due to shortage of buses.
@lakshmikap Yeah, been in touch with only a handful, and maybe a few more who I come across occasionally at weddings.
If you’re taking #DTC (AC/Non AC) this rainy season carry a waterproof sheet to cover your seat & hand towels to seal leaking roofs. #protip
@lakshmikap Oh, clearly I am late. But pehle 1 saal tak to badhaiyan milti rahegi. And yes, been in Delhi for the last 4+ years.
@beanbuffs Of course, @_basestation is always up for grabs. Batao kab? 22nd afternoon? @Grashima @blackbazacoffee
@lakshmikap Hello hello, and congratulations!
Been enjoying Turnpike by Karsh Kale for a while. Just now dug out the original Zindagi Jab Bhi Teri Bazm Mein by Talat Aziz — blown over.
@tapiriik If activities synced to Dropbox get deleted, is it possible to re-sync them?
@HDFCBank_Cares How do we get the base fare waived ticket / ₹750 discount using the @jetairways co-branded credit card?
@beanbuffs @blackbazacoffee @Grashima Put a date to that and I’ll order the beans.
The #DTC I was on was having trouble with its brakes. Passengers tried to coax the driver to drive to the next major interchange. Idiots.
@beanbuffs @blackbazacoffee @Grashima Quite different and low on brightness. 1st time I’ve got Robusta and a 80-20 Arabica-Robusta blend.
Produced one of the most insane running pace charts at yesterday’s half marathon. Kicked to see this. pic.twitter.com/4bDuNTc1zq
Also, the hand-lettering from @blackbazacoffee makes me feel terrible about my own handwriting. Sigh!

@PinguicVerse How about some cutting filter kaapi instead?
Black coffee + Karachi Bakery fruit biscuits. Mmmmmmm…
@Grashima @amitangshu I’m in. Batao kab act karna hai.
Also, more fun fodder: youtube.com/watch?v=yRT_GD…
amitangshu @souvikdg I am waiting for the day that unsustainable urban dystopia called Gurgaon sinks into its own potholes.
Story of my life. “@nigelbabu: Every Sunday morning I wake up at 3 am for a race, I question my life choices.”
@amitangshu Ran a half marathon in the rains today, jumping into puddles and out of them. Crazy water logging in Gurgaon.
Folks, congratulate @nigelbabu for his first half marathon. He ran on tough trails and country side roads under heavy rains. Super effort!
@PinguicVerse Sorry, I have no live information from Gurgaon. @Meetasengupta
Running a trail + countryside half marathon in quite heavy rain. Check.
@nigelbabu Sleep sir, sleep.
Also, what was that trick to doze off again?
keeperofthekeys Hello. Delhi BYOB (Bring Your Own Book) is still open. Sign up before the registration closes (soon)! delhibyob.tumblr.com

@ap00rv Perfect. Please do. And I will critique it.
@ap00rv Having read many laws I have come to the conclusion that defining laws is an extremely complex exercise.
@ap00rv That’s naive, I am sorry. Read the exact law, and do this exercise and it would make no sense. Try it.
@ap00rv So, as for your question, this is cruelty & not rape. But my opinion is that the law should change to acknowledge this act as rape.
@ap00rv I acknowledge that the law is skewed and want a gender parity. But I don’t have a better suggestion for how the law can be changed.
@ap00rv Blind eye? Did I ever defend the woman/accuse the man? Also, I borrow my definitions from the law (instead of concocting my own).
@ap00rv Also, there is a difference between saying gay sex is acceptable vs the law is unacceptable. 1st one doesn’t stand, 2nd one does.
@ap00rv Arre baba look at the context. You’re saying it’s rape and not cruelty. Whereas the article mentions the legal accusation here.
@ap00rv If the allegations are true, I’m with you on principle. The laws have to change first, and if they do it could lead to high abuse.
@ap00rv Well then that’s exactly what the wife has done here. Don’t think the allegation “forced onto him” is use of physical force.
@ap00rv There you go, you can at best accuse the wife of cruelty there. So don’t force your definition of rape in this context.
@ap00rv You simply dodged my question there.
@ap00rv Undoubtedly it is some form of cruelty or forceful consensus. Also, is there any legal definition for rape (of men)? @sorcerical
@ap00rv Undoubtedly it is some form of cruelty or forceful consensus. Also, is there any legal definition of rape (for guys)? @sorcerical
@ap00rv Okay, so if a guy tells his wife, “have sex with me or else I’ll go and have sex with someone else” is it rape? @sorcerical
sorcerical Yes, men of India. This is how women abuse you: partying, sex, clothes, acne and the refusal to make tea. bbc.com/news/world-asi…
@amitangshu **shaking my head while crushing coffee beans using a manual grinder**
@kingslyj Heh. That too.
@mehulved Got a FR 225. Don’t think it’s got faces. And not that faces could’ve matched the elegance of an analog metal body watch.
@kingslyj There’s a reason we have two wrists, no?
Terribly confused about which wrist watch to wear on a regular basis. The analog one is elegant and simple, but the Garmin counts my steps.
@abhijeetmk It’s not 8th here in India. @rungta
